You have to hand it to them. They are pretty darned consistent.

I've just read that Iraq inspections without conditions isn't what it's all cracked up to be. There're still conditions. They are saying that only military bases are open to inspection. What a joke!!

Secretary General Kofi Annan ...

Annan, the Monkey in a suit.The UN reminds me of an odd assortment of Apes. Anyone see how excited he was when announcing, as if Rome Has Spoken ? We are warring with the UN as well. Make no mistake about this- it is their lack of leadership which has helped to cause the world disorder.

(1) "In France one must adapt oneself to the fragrance of a urinal." -Gertrude Stein

(2) "The French bourgeois doesn't dislike shit, provided it is served up to him at the right time." -Jean-Paul Sartre

(3) "France...[a] long despotism tempered by epigrams." - Thomas Carlyle

(4) "What other "culture" looks at snails and pig genitals and sees food?"

(5) The official language of the United Nations is French. This explains the UN's many stunning successes over the years.

Why liberals and democrats like the French:

When you think about it, there are four possible explanations for why American leftists love France so much (aside from France's historical love affair with Communism and Stalinism).

First, the French are trying to outlaw hard work and, perhaps eventually, work entirely. Government agents stake out companies suspected of working their employees more than 35 hours a week. Some exiting employees are searched to make sure they don't bring any work home with them. If you believe that requiring work is a form of discrimination against those who want to live well without working, then you've got to love France.

Second, the only sexual preference France doesn't celebrate is heterosexual monogamy.

Third, France has always treated its intellectuals like celebrities, a seductive practice for American academics forced to drive around in old VW buses and live next door to men who actually work with their hands.

But, finally, the most important reason American leftists love France is that French elites say bad things about America. French intellectuals call us racist, stupid, imperialistic, simplistic, etc. — and that alone is proof of their intellectualism. So long as you call America "racist," you could add that an enema is as good as a toothbrush and some professor of "communications theory" would applaud.

Why does France need a military anyway? Any one of their citizens can be delegated to be the head white flag waving surrender monkey.

Paris heils Iraq offer.....The Champs- Elysee is lined with trees, so that France's conquerors might have some shade while marching into Paris in broad daylight.

[Phillip Augustus]

Yes, Goldberg is a noted war hero, and thus in a perfect position to speak of surrender monkeys.

Bahahaha! A neo-con punk like that would wet his pants at the sight of combat, notwithstanding his calls for others to fight in wars. He would not last two minutes with the likes of Jean-Marie Le Pen, and Le Pen is on the dark side of 70 years old.

[sheik yerbouty]

We should endeavour not to defame monkeys by making such comparisons.

Kofi Anus should seek employment elsewhere. Perhaps he can dispense toiletries in "la salle de baine" of Paris' finest restaurants.

[dfwgator]

Well it's just Britain and America. Again.

And Eastern Europe. The Czechs know better than anyone the price of appeasement.

[yendu bwam]

Does France have an army?

[linn37]

how many times must saddam make a fool out of these people?Grow some balls you European weenies!

[Rome2000]

The military should stick to soldiering and let the politicians make asses of themselves.

Now everybody in the world knows that not only is the French government is full of socialist cowards, its military is run by one as well.

"We are opposed to any doctrine of preventive strikes," Kelche told Europe 1 radio French Battle Stations: Bent over at the waist, holding on to one's ankles.

[austingirl]

France has a military? Why?

[Yankee]

They like playing dress-up, in a manly sort of way.

Napoleon wouldn't urinate on the best part of today's French military.

[Yankee]

Also, somebody has to round up French women who sleep with the enemy, and tar-and-feather them.
